Phased fuel transitions for decarbonizing the Asia–Europe Green Shipping Corridor
Shipping remains almost entirely reliant on fossil fuels, and identifying viable fuel transition pathways under evolving regulations is a key challenge. A study now evaluates 13 alternative marine fuels for the Asia–Europe corridor, revealing phased transitions shaped by policy design and timing.
